What the hell did they mean by this?
Kemono Friends
Probably more depressing lore stuff.
I really like this, it gives me hope. I still believe in her.
youtube.com
It looks really interesting but also like it could potentially go back into Mine's suffering clusterfuck. I really hope it doesn't though.
You should avoid making a thread so soon after the last one, OP
Despite the lack of some Friends I want to believe
>Kaban never existed it was just some random dream Serval had after losing Mirai
>Kyururu was the only "human" she met after Mirai
or any other shit to remove anything related to tatsuki
But removing Kaban completely without truly killing her removes either a more complete form of revenge or takeover from Mine. I really hope this doesn't happen but we won't know until we get it on "that" day
HEY
HEY FRIENDS
OH WE LIVE IN JAPARI PARK
So is any of the new shit worth it after the original or nah
Ahhh why did they have to make the OP so good? Just die and don't get my hopes up.
So far, not really. The fake KF was a terrible disaster that ruined everything and the artshow after that simply made everything worse. There's a chance KF3 might not be terrible though since the frog doesn't seem to be doing much about it, and though it won't be as good as getting Tatsuki back it's something.
The music is one of the only good things left
dunno man,i don't see Yea Forums for past few days
That's why you check the archives first silly user
They know Kemono Friends is dying.
BELIEVE!
The shorts retelling the story of the Nexon game are cute.
Even if the game is doomed to fail after a month, I'm happy we will get to see a rise on fanart for a bit more
The temporary boost in fanart will be really nice, I just wish they'd have started with a greater variety in Friends. Hopefully it's not just the Friends that appeared in the OP image and even lesser appreciated Friends like Reindeer show up. It may take some time though and who knows if it will survive long enough
The aftermath of the sacrifice of Cerval to save the park, most likely. Gen. Whateverthefuck Serval dies feeling sadness that Mirai had to leave forever and that her besterest friend that isn't Caracal just an hero'd to ensure the future of the park, but this all takes place well before the events of KF3 and are only revealed by KF3 Serval getting sporadic flashbacks of a previous life as her and co. attempt to reclaim the park.
Alright, I don't recognize this hand. Is it our self-insert?
People have been wondering, but for now it seems to be a mystery.
Seems like it's possible, I don't see any Friends with that sort of glove and the American doesn't have that either
It's El Gluglú Primero's glove.
Can someone post the link to dhole's VA's karate chop?
Who's that bimbo ranger? New MC?
American visitor. She has really big breasts and her cup size is directly proportional to the time Kemono Friends 3 has left until it dies.
STOP GIVING ME HOPES
No Kaban, no Kemono.
"kemono" is a japanese word meaning "i don't want to admit i'm a furry"
I'd rather they stop trying to touch her so there's no risk of fucking her up any further
I'm not gonna lie, the app already look WAAAAAAAY better than KF2
Then leave Serval out in that case. There should be no post-S1 with Serval without Kaban.
no, it literally just means furry, user
I agree with that, though there's no way they're going to stop including her given she has always been one of the main Friends. It would be nice though
I find it exceedingly weird how Kaban's adventure became the central pillar of Kemono Friends after the end of the Nexon game but everything Mine and KFP tries to do is done with the sole purpose of trying to break it down and replace it.
It's not weird, the franchise is worthless trash without Tatsuki's writing, and that fact drives Mine and KFP people crazy.
Is it really that weird? The game and manga were lackluster and failed to garner any real popularity. The anime was the majority of the fandoms first entry into the franchise and the first entry to garner any real attention. Whats really weird is how hellbent they seem on torching it for all to see instead of doing the more traditional Japanese corporate thing and pretending it doesn't exist while making something new to replace it.
I still don't understand how they can think that angst reeee teen could ever be good in this show.
Maybe one of the decision makers has some personal vendetta?
I guess it really isn't, when I think about it. It kinda feels like Mirai was supposed to be a sort of main heroine for the franchise and this would have extended to Kaban as well, who is technically a sort of reincarnation of Mirai, as well as her successor as the park guide of Japari Park whom all the Friends look up to and respect. I think it's because of how successful the KF anime was that ultimately changed the dynamic and relationship between the parts of the original trio of works in the franchise. What was supposed to be an extension of the game exploring a far-off future became the present and as a result it became the only thing to move the story forward as the game died prematurely without fully exploring the original "present" of the series. Now, they're left with a "present-time" that even Mine had little input in creating and can't really do anything with it because the main vehicle to explore this new present is no longer readily available for use as they just fired Tatsuki and co. without realizing they were throwing away the future of the series as a result. Now, their only option is to destroy the "present" and do the same treatment with the KF anime did with the Nexon game (unintentionally) through KF2 and the art show lore, but since that backfired horribly, they really have no other means of expanding upon the series than continuing to explore its past. If Kaban's adventures are what brought people to the series and what people expect, then it's no longer their work and that's unacceptable.
Irodori's stuff in TIA'S MAGAZINE.
I'm still pissed.
>Season 1 finale had Kaban saving Serval from Cerulean attack and nearly dying.
>Beginning of Season 2 and we already know Serval was killed in another Cerulean attack.
Ah yeah, a long interview with irodori, a shame that it seems there is not a digital version one can buy easily, there is only the physical edition on selected stores, I think I have already lost the count of the interviews that have gone untranslated.
>Season 2
There is no S2 though? As far as we're all aware, Kaban, Serval and Lucky-san are all off exploring the next region and meeting all sorts of new Friends along the way.
I wouldn't say it's worthless, but it's clearly Tatsuki's gentleness that gave this franchise the spark of life it needed.
>MC is loli proto-Kaban
I'm okay with this.
I just want the happy times back.
God I wish that was me.
This was already proven to be the case through the tweets of Hosoya, some guy from AGN and Mine's art show.
Why did they appropriate the term?
Kaban II: Electric Boogaloo
I wish Kaban was my daughterwife.
I wish I could dress up in a bunnysuit with your daughterwife.
Fact: no one gave a shit about the Nexon game. No one gave a shit about anything made after Tatsuki's anime. The idea that lots of wonderful stories could be told in the Kemono Friends universe is nothing but pure bullshit, Tatsuki struck gold but that gold he struck was lightning in a bottle. He is fortunate to be kicked out of the franchise cause there's no guarantee a second season made by him would be successful. And he dodged a bullet.
I'll take a real bunny.
No wonder bunnies are so good at certain something.
Even if a Tatsuki made S2 was only half as good as the original it still would've been infinitely better than the garbage we got.
By the way, Dhole is literate and can write. Not only she one of the strongest, but also smartest Friends.

small soul/big soul/soulless
It is not though.
There's no such thing as a smart Friend.
Yes but some Friends are dumber than others.
Which anime is it from then?
...
Don't reply to it.
The two are smarter than everyone else in the park. Let that sink in.
That's an opening movie for a video game.

Most video games have computer animation, some even have cartoons. They're still video games.
>The idea that lots of wonderful stories could be told in the Kemono Friends universe is nothing but pure bullshit
An unfortunately true statement. The setting of Japari Park as an actual park isn't really interesting, but the way it was twisted with the anime is almost ingenious. It's probably why everything after the anime tries to emulate its aesthetics, but with varying degrees of success. Even now, I still don't really understand what specifically made the anime so captivating compared to the Nexon game and the manga.
Are we sure it's a girl this time?
Friends...
People wrote essays about why KF1 was so good. I think it has to do with the fact it was a simple story that was told really well and that Tatsuki had a 'show don't tell' philosophy which drew viewers in and lead to speculation about what was going on. Also the characters, while simple, were very likable and it was great seeing Kaban journey from being a scared little girl to being the savior of the park without fundamentally changing who she was. KF2 failed at all these things at every conceivable level.
>pink painted fingernail glove
Yes. Probably a Human Friend even. On that topic, since Friends born in the wild are born with clothes made of rougher material and Kaban was born far from human civilization in the middle of the savanna region, would a Human Friend born in a city be born with cute, stylish, soft clothes made of synthetic fibers and have a more urban outfit?
It's a cartoon and Japanese. It's anime.
True
Yet the last KF3 thread was deleted.
You think I'll be able to buy those laptop stickers anywhere?
But that's wrong, there was a thread focused on it that simply got archived a few days ago
The proto Kaban is a girl.
pictures the stage 1 Kaban from that godawful exhibition. Must be a girl too.
T-this thread is my territory, go away!
*unzips*
That thread was okay because it was about fennec's VA. KF3 threads get deleted though
My dad works at Irodori. Here's a sneak peak at a model they'll be using for KFS2. Don't show this to anyone else.
Would pet and spoil.
>発行日 2019年08月25日
>Sold out
Isn't it a little silly to only consider the OP posts?
I wish Kaban was alive
I don't know, ask the mods.
She and Serval are having tanoshii adventures exploring the new island.
Such a good girl. She deserved nothing but love.
Is there a Gomasuri model, user?
nah
Believe in Japari Park
But I don't want to get hurt yet again
please not again, i don't wanna suffer anymore
We live in Japari Park
Won't you let a friend nurse you back to health?
I've never stopped
Can she be stopped?
>time traveling amulet
Elaborate.
Lonely birb wants your attention
That's not the Toki I posted, moot.
Oh, that is the second time we have seen a mootswap desuarchive.org
what Friend would be best for healing?
Don't worry user, I'll be taking care of you.
But that's a different type of "taking care"
Sand Cat with her magical healing sand.
I bet Tsuchinoko's the only Friend that's actively trying to find more artifacts, but hasn't actually succeeded in finding the magical, super mysterious ones. Sandcat probably found the time traveling amulet but got bored of it and reburied it somewhere in her little cave.
Thanks, forgot about it.
What friend is this?
D-hole, the new Serval.
Dhole-chan, she's going to save Kemono Friends!
I really hope putting my faith in her is the right choice
She's not working alone.
I’m not going to be surprised if they decided to switch cats for dogs because of Domestic Dog
About Peach Panther, compared to this...
Canidae proving yet again it's the best family.
...and this...
...her booty looked pretty nerfed in the recently-revealed OP sequence.
I dunno, they still seems to give cats a bit of love with the Friends we've seen so far and the ones that appeared in the opening. We even get multiple forms of lion. There needs to be more love for antler Friends
Is Meerkat smart, or does she just dress like a dork?
>giving a Friend called peach panther a small ass
Personally, I think it's a huge shame how neglected and unloved primate Friends are (excluding Kaban and Golden Snub-nosed). Look at this wide-eyed little freak of nature.
Well KF2 had Gorilla gorilla gorilla, but she unfortunately ended up in an inferior knock off of the Moose and Lion episode.
Kaban's appearance at the end was quite well done, too bad they completely fucked everything up afterwards.
Aye-Aye is seemingly going to be in KF3, so she's got that goin for her.
crash diet
I want to bury myself between Toki's thighs and never come out.
She's wouldn't let you come out either.
Serval chan is fucking dead
Memery like this is what made KF2.
That would be a wonderful way to go
*KF1
I will never stop being mad.
:D
>Jagaa doesn't appear in the opening but is in the game
>some of the lesser known Friends like white lion and Reindeer are in the opening and maybe even the game
Is there a chance?
Are they supposed to jam every Friend into the opening? My guess is that most if not nearly all of them will at least appear in the game.
You'll learn to get acclimated to being trapped in a perpetual state of undying rage, anger, and hatred and develop unconscious visual filters to anything KF2 related. At the very least, I'm happy KF2 and the art show lore dump have almost unanimously been ignored since then and people have since gone back to treating Kaban, Serval and Lucky as an inseparable trio of BFFs. I wish Wakame was a separate character from Kaban, though. It's almost a shame such a good design comes at the cost of assuming KF2 is canon and that Kaban will have to suffer Madoka-levels of existential angst for countless generations and even turn into someone else.
Not really, though I just find their choices with it a bit weird like with Jagaa not showing up at all while some lesser known Friends that may not even show up are included. I really hope they have a lot more Friends waiting in the game though, more variety would be great and there are some Friends I really want to see.

Guys I miss her so much and her fanart is dwindling
I absolutely love her, since KF3 is looking good I hope she gets in
